If a beachside setting is at the top of your holiday wish list, take a look at Villa Joan. This traditional holiday home is just a ten-minute walk from the fine sands of Cala Blanca. The limestone cliffs that line this section of shore act as a natural windbreaker, so you'll be sheltered when you sunbathe. And the beach slopes gently into the sea, making it a great place to swim during your late holiday deals to Cala Blanca. Back at the villa, the outdoor scene steals the show. A long swimming pool rolls out in the villa's terrace like a red carpet, and the whole area is surrounded by mature gardens, so you'll have plenty in the way of privacy.

Lookswise, the property is a rustic affair. Outside, green window shutters sit nicely on the whitewashed walls, while the interior is all tiled floors and wooden furniture. Walls full of windows complete the look by flooding each room with light. When it comes to cooking, this place has all the self catering staples, including a fridge-freezer, microwave and a toaster. And the in-house entertainment comes in the form of a satellite TV. If you'd rather be out and about, the villa is in a perfect location for exploring. You can walk to the tavernas and bars of Cala Blanca in ten minutes. Or, you can get to Cuidadela in the same time by car.
